Chatting to Squad grad & Wakefield Museums Snr Curator Steph Webb re possible Squad collabs. God wasn’t in Creative Cafe today but nice to feel the presence of characters from my online novella for @wakefieldlitfest still trapped in my story or a decade older? at wakelost dot com

If you're in Edinburgh for the Fringe, make sure you catch Sadie Pearson's 'Rodney Black. Who Cares? It’s Working' @Gildedballoon 18-25th August. In the comedy world, where controversy is king, when does the joke stop being funny? buff.ly/C1nfOEg

No idea if you’re in Aarhus tomorrow but, if you happen to be, drop by at Godsbanen, Vogn 1 at 19.30 to listen to what this lot cooked up in Aalborg last April and over the last few days here, and if you can’t catch us then,we’ll be at @McrLitFest in October.
